Romelu Lukaku has set his sights on a trip to Wembley with Everton after he returned to action with a bang on Saturday.

The Belgian was the Blues’ match-winner as they saw off West Ham United 1-0 at Goodison Park. The on-loan Chelsea man emerged from the bench to net his 10th goal of the season, having missed his side’s last four games with an ankle injury.

His return comes at a good time for Roberto Martinez , with a crunch FA Cup quarter-final clash at Arsenal to come next weekend. And Lukaku says he is desperate to help Everton end their 19-year trophy jinx this season.

He said: “We want to give our fans a trophy, we want to go to Wembley. We have some big challenges to come, of course, but this club loves a challenge.

“Arsenal is going to be a tough game, and whoever prepares the best will win. Maybe they will rest some players because they have the Champions League game against Bayern Munich to come, but they are still Arsenal and we will still respect them.

“But we are a good side, and we are desperate to go to Wembley. I am a winner and I want to win with Everton. It will be a big challenge at Arsenal, but that goes for them too.”

Lukaku’s goal keeps Everton in touch with the Premier League’s top five, though it will be a big ask for the Blues to overhaul the likes of Tottenham and Arsenal for a European qualification spot. Lukaku, though, is remaining bullish, insisting that the top four is still not out of reach just yet.

He said: “It is still very realistic. We know that Liverpool and Tottenham have good sides, but we have to look at ourself. We have to set the standard and keep our consistency, if we do that then we will win games.

“It’s been very frustrating for me recently. Every footballer wants to play.

“But without me, players have shown themselves, like Steven Naismith for example. He’s done very well for the team. Everybody is getting fit again now, so the competition for places is very strong. That will raise the level. We have some big games, but it is up to us to deliver good performances between now and the end of the season.”

Saturday was the second time this season that Lukaku had come off the bench to score a winner against West Ham, having done so in the 3-2 win at Upton Park earlier in the season. And the 20-year-old revealed the secret behind his success.

“I study the opponents when I am on the bench,” he said. “I watch them closely, so I know what I need to do when I come into the game.

“It feels good for me to score, but I am a winner and it feels even better to win for the team.

“I have to thank the medical staff who have been very helpful. I am back now, and hopefully I can play a part.

“I don’t set personal goal targets, I just try to help the team win games. If I do that, then the rest will come.”
